Get tix to THE WORLD'S END!
The Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy (also known as the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy or the Cornetto trilogy) is a series of comedy films directed by Edgar Wright, written by Wright and Simon Pegg, produced by Nira Park, and starring Pegg and Nick Frost. The films are Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World's End.
Each film in the trilogy is connected to a Cornetto ice cream, with a Cornetto of the appropriate flavour appearing in each film. Shaun of the Dead features a strawberry-flavoured Cornetto, which signifies the film's bloody and gory elements, Hot Fuzz includes the blue original Cornetto, to signify the police element to the film, and The World's End features the green mint chocolate chip flavour in a nod to aliens and science fiction.
The name originates from a "silly joke" during the promotion of Hot Fuzz, when somebody pointed the Cornetto connection out to Wright, and he suggested that the three flavours of Cornetto was a reference to Krzysztof Kieślowski's Three Colours film trilogy. According to Wright, Wall's, manufacturer of the Cornetto, were "very pleased with the namecheck".
